Three independently ugly bugs that all fed the same log flood:
* Electron's `WebFrameMain.send` writes every "Render frame was disposed"
to stderr via `console.error`. When the worker fans a second
agent-event past a reloading renderer, we produced thousands of
identical lines and stalled the main loop on stderr I/O. Added a
`mainFrame.detached` guard so the send is short-circuited before
Electron's own catch block fires, and installed a targeted filter in
`suppress-warnings.ts` (now actually imported from the entry point)
so the specific `console.error("Error sending from webFrameMain:"…)`
noise never reaches the terminal. Any other payload still surfaces.
* `dispatchAgentMessage` accepted the human-reader sentinel as a wake
target when an agent replied to `__board__` — `wakeAgentIfPossible`
then called `db.getAgent("__board__")`, threw, and the dispatcher
kept repeating on every send. Strip `HUMAN_SENDER_ID` at
`resolveMessageWakeTargets`, and keep a defense-in-depth guard in the
heartbeat so a stray caller (future automation fan-out) cannot
reintroduce the crash.
* Pi's skills loader rejects any SKILL.md whose frontmatter `name`
diverges from its parent directory. The four bundled `my-writing-style`
copies declared `name: writing-style-skill`, so every install emitted
a warning and dropped the skill. They also lived as orphan gitlinks
(mode 160000 without .gitmodules), and the global `*.md` gitignore
hid every other SKILL.md from version control. Fixed the frontmatter
to match the dir, converted the dangling submodules to plain trees,
and allowlisted `builtin-skills/**/*.md` so a fresh clone carries the
catalogue instead of silently losing it.

Release Components as Cohesive Units
Classes grouped into a component should be releasable together. A component should have a version number, release notes, and clear documentation. This is the Reuse/Release Equivalence Principle (REP).
Incorrect (arbitrary grouping):
shared-lib/
├── src/
│ ├── auth/
│ │ ├── JwtValidator.ts
│ │ └── PermissionChecker.ts
│ ├── logging/
│ │ └── Logger.ts
│ ├── email/
│ │ └── EmailSender.ts
│ └── payment/
│ └── StripeClient.ts
└── package.json // version 1.2.3
# Version 1.2.4 fixes JWT bug
# But users of EmailSender must also upgrade
# Changelog unclear which features affect which users
Correct (cohesive releasable components):
packages/
├── auth/
│ ├── src/
│ │ ├── JwtValidator.ts
│ │ ├── PermissionChecker.ts
│ │ └── index.ts
│ ├── CHANGELOG.md # Auth-specific changes
│ └── package.json # @company/auth v2.1.0
├── logging/
│ ├── src/
│ │ └── Logger.ts
│ ├── CHANGELOG.md
│ └── package.json # @company/logging v1.0.3
├── email/
│ ├── src/
│ │ └── EmailSender.ts
│ ├── CHANGELOG.md
│ └── package.json # @company/email v1.5.0
└── payments/
├── src/
│ └── StripeClient.ts
├── CHANGELOG.md
└── package.json # @company/payments v3.0.0
# Clear ownership: auth team owns @company/auth
# Independent versioning: JWT fix only bumps auth
# Semantic versioning: breaking change in payments doesn't affect others
Benefits:
- Teams release independently on their own schedule
- Version numbers communicate compatibility
- Changelogs specific to what users of each component care about
